The mix between management and arcade is the best to have appeared in any soccer game, making it enthralling and addictive. There is a whole slew of extra options and choices that, added together, make this an unique managerial game. If you did play a football game in the 90s then this is a must have game. If you didn`t own soccer games on Commodore Amiga or Atari ST then you`re missing the most revolutionary soccer management game ever created. This is the most fast paced soccer game ever developed and with the most accurate ball control and physics.

But where The Managerial game really holds it`s own is on the management side. Here, in amongst all the detailed form sheets and generous assortment of menus, is where all the important decisions can be made, starting right off with who you are. There are basically two roles you can play. The first, and possibly the easiest, is the true managerial role, in which case you can play as the whole team. The other role, is the role of a true player on field that is also the team coach, where you still make all the managerial choices, but can only play football as one member of the team. In this mode, you can only play your chosen position, and have to work with the computer operating the rest of your team for you. Tough to play, but infinitely more rewarding. A lot of the menus and options cover old ground, but in the case of player transfer markets and financial details, that is unavoidable. However, possibly one of the most impressive options yet seen on a managerial game, and the keystone to addictiveness and involvement of this game, is the Tactics option. Forget selecting 4-2-4 or 4-3-3, TPM lets you plan all your set pieces just the way you want them. An infinite amount of different strategies are available to you, the only limit is your imagination. By placing the players in the best positions for your style of play, and marking out approximate ‘trace’ lines, telling each player where they should be for any given moment, you will never be able to say that you are not in full control of your game.
